Miller signing wasn't a must-do, but it sure helps Rockets 大米不是最佳的選擇, 但是已經夠好了 http://blogs.chron.com/jeromesolomon/2010/07/another_big_man_for_the_rocket.html Posted by Jerome Solomon at July 18, 2010 11:21 PM 自翻 One day, 2 hours, 51 minutes and 15 seconds. That is how long after we displayed the clock on the Rockets' need for a backup center that they went out and got one. So let it be written. So let it be done. There are circumstances in which you wouldn't need a big man: If you had Michael Jordan, Clyde Drexler, Magic Johnson, Larry Bird, Kobe Bryant, Jerry West, Oscar Robertson, Scottie Pippen, John Havlicek and Bernard King on your roster, for instance. 有幾種情況你不會需要長人, 如果你的隊伍中有Michael Jordan, Clyde Drexler, Magic Johnson, Larry Bird, Kobe Bryant這些人的話. Of course, you would have the all-time all-time greatest team if you added Hakeem Olajuwon and Bill Russell to that squad, but you would still have the all-time greatest team if Chuck Hayes started in the middle for that team with David Andersen playing the role of ceremonial cigar. (Think Christian Laettner on the Dream team.) 當然, 如果這支隊伍加入了 Hakeem Olajuwon 或是 Bill Russell 的話, 這肯定是史上最強球隊. 不過就算你讓 Chuck Hayes 跟 David Andersen 出任中鋒的話, 這還是一個很強的陣容. Recognizing that they do not have a superstar on the roster, and probably don't have a player that will ever even make an All-Star squad — there is a chance Aaron Brooks will one day play at an All-Star level, but it is difficult to make the team in the Western Conference at the point — the Rockets have decided they should employ a couple of centers this season. 認清了沒有其他超級球星會加盟之後, 火箭隊決定要加強中鋒長人的陣容. Yao Ming and Brad Miller. Finally, a reason for a parade. 姚明跟大米(Brad Miller). 謝天謝地. Even Daryl Morey knows the Rockets should have found a center to play center last season. Now, if only they can get their hands on a guy who can play a few minutes, block the occasional shot and grab a rebound inside without it having to roll to him. Morey老大也了解我們缺少了中鋒這一塊, 必須找個人能夠幫忙敲敲火鍋, 抓抓籃板. Is Jordan Hill that guy? Good question. 這個人會是Jordan Hill嗎? 問的好. While points in the paint tell you less about winning and losing than most think, it is a key stat to my personal enjoyment of a game. I like it when things happen in the paint — scoring and especially defending. 我喜歡關注那些在禁區發生的事情, 得分, 還有最重要的防守. The Rockets went from a team that allowed 37.8 points-in-the-paint per-game in 2008-09 to one that surrendered 45.4 in 2009-10. They went from being 10th-best in the league to fourth-worst. 火箭隊08-09平均每場在禁區失掉37.8分, 09-10年卻平均每場失掉了45.4分. 這項數據他們從聯盟第十名掉到了聯盟第四爛. In 2008-09 the Rockets were fifth in the league in defensive rebounding. They dropped to 13th last season, but the drop is even more significant considering they fell from the top-five in field goal percentage allowed to 20th. Hence they gave up almost eight more points a game this past season than they did the year before. 08-09賽季他們是聯盟最會抓防守籃板的第五名. 上個賽季他們掉到了第十三. 命中率從前五掉到了第二十. 每一場比賽還多讓對手得了八分. Yao's presence changes much of that. (How much will he play, how long will he last? You'd have to be psychic to know.) 姚明的歸隊應該會改善很多事情. Flopping Brad Miller changes some of that. He isn't a defensive terror, but against most teams the Rockets are better with him than without him. 大米的到來也會有些幫助. 他不是一個防守專家, 不過有他在我們陣中總是比較好一些的. Nobody knows how much he has left, but Miller, who has played 12 seasons in the league after not even being drafted out of Purdue, makes the Rockets a smarter team, which should help. 沒人知道他的功力還剩下多少, 不過在聯盟打滾了十二個賽季的他應該會對火箭隊有所幫助. Getting Hayes back to playing most of his minutes at power forward should help big-time. 讓Hayes來對抗四號位的球員應該會更有幫助. -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 112.78.93.62
